Ingredients

  • 6 Slices Bacon, Diced

  • 1/2 Cup Green Bell Pepper, Finely Chopped

  • 1/2 Cup Red Bell Pepper, Finely Chopped

  • 1/2 Cup Yellow Onion, Finely Chopped

  • 1/4 Cup Sherry

  • 4 Cups Fresh Corn Kernels, with Any Milk from the Cobs

  • 1 Cup Heavy Cream

  • 2 Teaspoons Tony’s Original Creole Seasoning
